[hobbit] Questions about hobbitd_rrd

Which makes this even more interesting, because 1 system is going to have multiple rrd fill-ins (for a blade center)

IE.

1 host is going to have rrd files for temperature, voltage, power consumption, fan speed, etc. All in a single swoop. Meaning that I need to open and close multiple rrd files in a single test.

It's starting to sound like I should have stuck with Cacti and found a way to get the graphs into hobbit. This is definitely not making things easy! :\

I use a wrapper script that calls the specific RRD graphing script based on
test name. Below is the shell script I use. Then you just need to configure
your [rrdstatus] hobbitlaunch.cfg section with the
options "--extra-script=$BBHOME/bin/rrd-scripts/rrd-wrapper.sh --extra-tests=wsstat,schealth,dbdisk,mem"

#!/bin/bash
#
# $1 - HostName
# $2 - TestName
# $3 - LogFName
rrdScript="/home/hobbit/server/bin/rrd-scripts"

if [ "$2" == "wsstat" ] ; then
        $rrdScript/wsstat-rrd.pl $1 $2 $3
elif [ "$2" == "schealth" ] ; then
        $rrdScript/schealth-rrd.pl $1 $2 $3
elif [ "$2" == "dbdisk" ] ; then
        $rrdScript/dbdisk-rrd.pl $1 $2 $3
elif [ "$2" == "mem" ] ; then
        $rrdScript/memory-rrd.sh $1 $2 $3
else
        echo "No script defined for $2"
fi
